Alvarado station (formerly Alvarado Medical Center station) is a station on San Diego Trolley's Green Line in the College Area. It opened in 2005.[1]

The street-level station has side platforms. It is located near the intersection of Alvarado Road and Reservoir Drive. The station is located across the street from the UC San Diego Health East Campus Medical Center. Besides the hospital and the College Area, portions of the residential neighborhood of Del Cerro are also accessible from the stop.

In December 2023, the station was renamed from Alvarado Medical Center station to Alvarado station due to the name change of the adjacent hospital from Alvarado Hospital to UC San Diego Health East Campus Medical Center.[2]
